About Us

About us

Master Gardener Foundation of San Juan County
The Master Gardener Foundation of San Juan County (MGFSJC) is a nonprofit corporation formed by dedicated WSU Master Gardeners and volunteers to support the WSU Master Gardener Program. The primary purpose of the foundation is to raise funds to support the San Juan County Master Gardener Program of Washington State University (WSU). The Foundation is a separate and distinct organization from the Master Gardener Program.

To learn more about the foundation, see Frequently Asked Questions.

WSU Master Gardener Program of San Juan County
The purpose of the WSU Extension Master Gardener Program is to provide public education in gardening and environmental stewardship generated from research-based information by WSU Extension and other university systems. Volunteers are trained by WSU faculty and staff to be community educators about issues of importance in our local communities such as enhancing natural resources, sustaining vibrant communities, and improving the health and wellness of San Juan County residents.

To learn more about the program, see the WSU Master Gardeners website.
